Hi Jason, That is just what I was looking for. We are running the e1000 with 4 port intel nic. No worries on the hardware.
I will check out your suggestions and let you know what I end up using. You mention the NIC changes as well as a good nic. In your research how much more performance did the ring buffer change and interrupt change have? Any suggestions on what you use to load test your new configurations?
